Wonderful Ryokan

We stayed in tatami rooms with private bath. It comes with a very nice view as you sit outside in the bath overlooking the mountain side. the food is wonderful, if you truly appreciate Japanese food (I've read other reviews saying the food was bland but that usually comes from a non-foodie that doesn't get quality food). It is kaiseki food for dinner and breakfast but if you stay longer, they will offer shabu shabu or sukiyaki. We stayed a couple nights so we did sukiyaki the second night. The Ryokan itself looks a bit dated in the lobby but again, the rooms were wonderful. The location is a bit out of the way as it is a 10 min taxi drive from Oji station which is about 30-45 minutes train from Nara station. So a bit country but if you are looking for peace and quiet, this is the place to be.

全体的に丁寧

チェックイン時からずーっと丁寧な対応をしてもらえ、0才児連れということを伝えていたので食事の部屋にはベビー用のハイローチェアが用意されていた。お陰様で子どもはよく寝てくれており、夫婦でゆっくり食事が取れた。食事の味も申し分なく、調理師免許持ちの妻も大満足だった。部屋も広くて綺麗だった。

予約した客室画像に部屋付き露天風呂の画像があったので部屋に露天風呂があると思ってたが実際には無くて露天風呂付きにして貰うのに追加料金が発生。　 露天風呂付きの部屋に移動したらシャワーや身体を洗う場所も石鹸すらなかったのが残念。

This is a hideaway inn that Japanese people don't

Relax in the bath set on the balcony while watching the wonderful view. This is a hideaway inn that Japanese people don't know too much. We recommend this ryokan if you want to experience a real high quality Japanese ryokan service. In order to do so, you must also learn Japanese culture and manners before staying.

お料理美味しい

お茶とお菓子で迎えてくださいました。浴衣は部屋にあったものを着ましたが、売店のとなりに無料で選べる浴衣があったみたい。部屋食ではなかったが夕食も朝食もとても美味しかった。２０時から売店がちょっとしたラウンジスペースになり無料でワイン日本酒等が楽しめるのも嬉しい。お風呂はそう大きくないのが残念ですが、洗面は充実、部屋の露天風呂も気持ち良い、掛け流しだともっと良いな。

可もなく不可もなく。次はないかな。

hotels.comさんから予約したのですが、部屋にお風呂がついているタイプを予約したつもりが、無い部屋を予約してしまっていた。すぐに空いてる部屋を確認して、部屋を移らせてくれたので、旅館側の対応はよかった。 建物の外観はとても趣がある感じで、部屋はリフォームしたところとしてないところがありましたが、宿泊は快適でした。 大浴場の更衣室が、入り口からすぐ見えて、のれんでしきってあるだけだったのでそこがマイナス、エレベーターも狭いので、人数が多くなったら２往復でした。 チェックアウトする際、誰もいなくて、しばらくチャイムをならして待ったけど出てこず。調理場にいた人に声をかけ、従業員と思われる人が、預けていた鍵を返してくれただけで、女将の見送りとかそういうのもなく・・・という感じでした。

部屋のセンス、お風呂が最高！

お世話になりました。もともと予定していた部屋と違う部屋だったのですが、 フロントに伝えたところ、すぐに変更してくれました。 また、部屋食の対応もしっかりしてくださいましてありがとうございました。 ただ、朝食が変更前の部屋に届いていたのか、予定の時間より遅かったのそこが 少し残念なところでした。 ですが、部屋もごはんも最高でした。
